Excellent selection, professional service, and expert care. I highly recommend them for fur storage and repairs.

Top glove service by the best furriers in the business! Excellent selection of furs all sizes, shapes, colors and lengths! Angelo and his father John were so friendly and helpful in looking at our furs and assessing repairs. Storage is easy and at a great rate! read more

I love Fur Coats, I have several from Pavlis Furs! Honestly the only place I would buy a fur coat, hat, throw, etc. The quality and craftsmanship are unsurpassed! Angelo will help you get the right piece for you. He is truly an artist! read more

I can't say enough about these people. The business has been around forever and with good reason. Mr. Pavlis Sr. Is a real old fashioned gentleman. He referred me to his son who was happy to help. They are going to clean my leather coat which has a mink reversible side and alter the sleeves for me at a very reasonable rate. They are real pros! read more

I brought my winter coat in for cleaning and Angelo did an amazing job! I had makeup stains on my coat that I didn't think would be removed and he removed all makeup stains! I had the fur trimming replaced and it looks so much better. My coat looks brand new and he even fixed the zipper. He did such a great job and had a quick turnaround! read more

I had a faux brim on my parka. It didn't look good. I contacted Rachel and she informed me they often replace the faux fur brims on parkas I sent in the faux fur brim to them and received a few fur choices via email. The result was amazing! The new real fur brim is stunning. Angelo is an artist . Again, I'm in DC not Chicago and we do have furriers but not with the same customer service and results. What are you waiting for? They're the best!!! read more

Today I went to Pavlis Furs after a Yelp search. There are not many furriers these days and it was refreshing knowing that my beloved fur coats are handmade locally by Angelo himself. Angelo and his father warmly greeted me right away when I walked into their beautiful showroom. The prices are extremely reasonable for the high quality of fur and workmanship each coat exudes. I highly recommend Pavlis over any other local furrier or chain dept store fur salon. I'll also store/clean my coats with Pavlis from now on! read more

I had my mom's vintage Persian Lamb and mink coat that needed some repair. The owner was so knowledgeable and knew exactly how to fix the tears in the shoulders of the coat. He cleaned it and my goodness . . . looks like the day my mom got it 50+ years ago! This shop was started by his father and he not only runs the furrier but he makes many (if not all?) of the coats, makes his own patterns, etc. I hadn't been to a furrier since I was a little girl so I was blown away by just how beautiful everything was! "Not your mother's mink coats" is an understatement. I tried on one of the fingertip length short hair mink coats . . . that's REVERSIBLE I'm in love! And I'm not what I would call a "fur person"! I would highly recommend coming here if you need repairs or want to make a purchase. I have a feeling places like this are very few and far between these days which is sad. It was so fun to talk to someone so passionate and knowledgeable about the work! Now I just need to figure out how to get my family to buy me that coat!!! read more

Pavlis Furs - I. Need. This. Coat! - Leather Goods Near Me - Arlington Heights, Illinois

I was dismayed to discover a large tear in my mink and fox coat. The only 2 furriers I could find listed in the entire state of Montana were out of state for the next 4 months, returning in the summer. So I went online and chose Pavlis Furs. I am very glad I did. Angelo called me at home and reviewed the probable cost of repair, depending on condition of the fur. His estimate was just a little high of what he billed. The work was done quickly, and it is perfect. He advised me about the best way to send it, and returned it packed in a very nice cloth storage bag. I highly recommend them. read more

I have had a custom coat made by Angelo 15 years ago that is worn trudging through the streets of Chicago with a backpack for every winter day below 30 degrees. The coat still looks like it is brand new. Angelo and Rachel lovingly restore and store the coat every Summer. I also have a lighter weight sheared mink car length that was bought off the rack 10 years ago. Both are fabulous pieces that round out my wardrobe. read more

Today I went to see about repairs for two fur coats. The gentleman at Pavlis looks at these furs and assessed the condition. He recommended not to repair the furs because the pelts were dry rotting. I have to appreciate a person who is so honest know that he needs the business on these times of Covid. There were no sales tactics to sell me another coat. Just a very nice man being very honest. In my opinion this is a very reputable business with folks that work there with unwavering ethics. read more

Just received my full-length, brand new dark Mahogany Lunaraine mink coat bought SIGHT UNSEEN (honest to goodness) on EBay, after eyeing this baby and speaking back and forth with the owner, Angelo, and his lovely wife, Rachel. Well, let me just tell you, the numerous and extremely helpful pictures IN NO WAY do the ABSOLUTE BEAUTY OF THIS COAT JUSTICE!!! I was extremely careful about making certain the measurements were correct for my body type. That is KEY when buying a coat over the Internet. If you pay attention to Angelo's measurements and guidance regarding the coat's size, you'll be fine. Back to the coat, itself. The sweep was incredible! The fur was soft, thick and just gorgeous! Best of all--the price was beyond belief!! Nowhere--and I do mean nowhere--would I have been able to match the price--and mind you--I live in NYC, where the largest fur district IN THE WORLD is located. Oh, and let's not forget about the free shipping! After buying this magnificent fur, I'd have no hesitation, whatsoever, in purchasing I pre-0wned fur from Pavlis Furs, AND YOU SHOULD HAVE NO HESITATION EITHER!! As a matter of fact, I'll be back for a BLACKGLAMA swing coat in the near future! Like I said in my feedback review on EBay: if you want your Christmas to be Merry, BUY A PAVLIS FUR!!! read more

I just bought a fur from Pavlis Furs, sight unseen, on eBay. There were good pictures and dimensions, but not until it arrived did I know what I was getting. I am thrilled! They sent me this beautiful preowned Christian Dior Blue Iris Mink, full length. I am tall and frequently have problems with sleeve length. These sleeves are perfect and have terrific style. This coat is in wonderful condition, obviously just cleaned, and glazed and it has been stored properly over its 10-15 year life. It is like a new coat, fits like it was made for me and the quality is remarkable. This coat will last me for decades if I store and clean it properly, and I really appreciate the owners of Pavlis Furs for their excellent service and talking such good care of this coat. It was also nicely priced. I have been looking for a blue iris colored coat for a year and this one is terrific. It makes me yearn for another snow storm in my mountain ski town, so I can take my dog for a walk is real style. Thanks Pavlis! read more

We visited Pavlis Furs to have a full length fur tailored to something more casual. Angelo Pavlis warmly greeted us and was very helpful in explaining what was involved and what the result would be. We liked the idea that he would do the actual tailoring. We viewed several furs in the shop to understand what Angelo was explaining. We found a sheared fur jacket that was intriguing. Since we were not interested in buying a new fur we thanked Angelo and went on our way. After several days of reflecting, we returned to the shop and talked seriously about the sheared fur we accidentally discovered. Angelo took us on a tour of the shop including the backroom where we viewed the pelts he was then working on. We were enamored by his Intriguing generosity, knowledge, and graciousness. We bought the sheared fur jacket trading the former full length fur. We completed the transaction with good feelings and a desire to continue our business with Pavlis Furs. In fact we dropped off a men's leather jacket for cleaning and conditioning. Most importantly, we've since received numerous complements on the new fur. read more

I brought in a shearling cape with pen Mark's all over the front. Like magic it's all gone and looks better than ever. I had a reversible mink with something sticky on the cuff and spots all over the reversible raincoat side, I had this coat cleaned by another furrier, but Pavlis brought it back to life. It is perfect not a spot on it. This father and son do are just the greatest. I will recommend them to everyone. Beautiful furs and great prices. Donna Baker read more

Brought my 4 furs in for cleaning and storage. This is a wonderful family owned business, professional and with very reasonable prices...and everything is done on-site. I could not be happier!! read more

The owner and his wife actually run the store - and the workroom, where furs are designed, made, cleaned, repaired, etc., is connected. SO, you can be assured of the quality. The styles are amazing, the quality is beyond compare and the service is excellent!!! I brought in an inherited cape to be repaired and cleaned - awesome job. Buying my first full-length mink coat there, for sure! read more

I live in the Chicago area and Googled furriers as many have closed over the years. I looked over his web site and reviews, sounded great. I purchased a lovely jacket, well made. I was impressed that this is his family business and everything is done there. I have found my furrier and thank you Angelo read more

I brought my mink full length coat for restyling. It was too long and too formal. I had him shorten, widen, and add zipper. My new coat is casual and yet very elegant. Amazing workmanship and I love my new coat. read more

I had been searching all over Chicago for a furrier to alter a coat I had from the 80's. I searched high and low, until one day, magically, I found Angelo at Pavlis Furs. Angelo LOVES fur. This man LOVES what he does. And it's so obvious. He is so enthusiastic about fur, not to mention so knowledgeable. He makes everything in house, so anything you want made, he can make for you. His craftsmanship is beyond stunning. Fur is beautiful to begin with, but Angelo makes everything look amazing with the most detailed and intricate furrier tailoring. Plus, Angelo is super personable. Either way, the repairs for the coat would have been too high, so I bought a new vest from Angelo instead. The reason I give this place one $ is because for fur prices, this place is as cheap as it gets. The prices are ridiculously low for fur, especially considering the quality (and love) that goes into each piece. You can find significantly nicer and better made pieces here than you could at Neiman or Nordstrom with much better prices. The best part is, if you want something taken in or if you want a piece custom made, Angelo can do it for you. I am obsessed with Pavilis Furs. I am already saving up to get my next piece!!! read more
